Oh man, yeah. I finally caved and switched to the good zip tie style for mine. Makes a huge difference when you have to open them up later.

@william407 Totally feel you on this. I used to struggle with the old twist ties and they'd always break right when I needed them most. Switched to the reusable Velcro ones last year and never looked back. They hold everything snug but come off in two seconds when I need to swap out a cable. Such a small thing but it makes a huge difference in my setup.
